When I make a mistake, I try to apologize. It's not always easy to do. Happened last night. Had a crappy night and took it out on someone else. It was wrong. I recognized that and I did apologize. The other person can, of course, choose not to accept. Their right.
Other countries change school schedules overnight to let teens sleep. Why can't the U.S.?
My new post explores how our 13,000+ districts make a basic public health reform a slog: https://t.co/kJN3zUilUe #startschoollater
The salient point now is not Trump's dementia, but the Republicans' cowardice
They'd rather ruin America's reputation for decades than risk losing their jobs
The #NobelPeacePrize medal.
It measures 6.6 cm in diameter, weighs 196 grams and is struck in gold. On its face, a portrait of Alfred Nobel and on its reverse, three naked men holding around each other’s shoulders as a sign of brotherhood. A design unchanged for 120 years.
Did you know that some Nobel Peace Prize medals have been passed on after the award was given? A well‑known case is Dmitry Muratov’s medal, which was auctioned for over USD 100 million to support refugees from the war in Ukraine.
And the medal displayed at the Nobel Peace Center is actually on loan and originally belonged to Christian Lous Lange, Norway’s first Peace Prize laureate.
But one truth remains. As the Norwegian Nobel Committee states: “Once a Nobel Prize is announced, it cannot be revoked, shared, or transferred to others. The decision is final and stands for all time.”
A medal can change owners, but the title of a Nobel Peace Prize laureate cannot.
Good morning and Happy Sunday to everyone who refuses to accept mass shootings as inevitable while trump and Republicans keep standing in the way of gun reforms that could save lives.
"Praying" is not "all you can do," you pathetic weakling.
@NancyMace Turkey is a loss leader. It’s sold below cost to get buyers into the store where they will purchase other items that have regular markup. Or in this year’s case, at a higher cost than in previous years. Inflation is still up. Thanksgiving dinner still costs more than last year.
Where did Dems get the idea that they should support their candidates even if they say awful, offensive things? I hope someone gets to the bottom of this mystery.
Well, MAGAs, you owned the Libs, and all it cost you was a fuctioning government, a working democracy, human rights, economic stability, affordable groceries, affordable healthcare, qualified leaders, global standing.
Good for you!
To the Idiot Who Killed Charlie Kirk:
Against all odds, I hope you somehow come across this before they catch you, or I hope you’ll somehow read it before you take the coward’s way out by putting a gun in your own mouth.
I want you to know that there isn’t a rational adult in this country who thinks you’re a hero. There is no reasonable person who is thankful for your all-time act of self-important, destructive idiocy.
You have singlehandedly managed to make an increasingly unstable country that much more unstable, veering as we’ve been toward violent chaos, and the people who will suffer the most for it are those who were already fearing for our safety on a daily basis.
You have given some of the worst people in society the propaganda they desire to push their hateful agenda against the least protected among us.
I don’t care about your supposed reasons. Whatever your motivation happens to be, it’s definitely bullshit.
You don’t care about anyone but yourself.
If you did happen to care about this country and preserving our democracy and protecting the most marginalized, you’d have taken enough time to reflect on how this will only lead toward more violence and instability.
With a modicum of common sense, you’d have reached the obvious conclusion that political violence solves nothing. It is always immoral. It always self-serving.
It only leads to further violence and ultimately enables scapegoating of vulnerable communities. Committing acts of violence against those who disagree with us helps no one.
Your narcissism is now a national cancer that will likely metastasize, and the rest of us will have the responsibility for doing everything we can to stop its spread.
Your sociopathic fuck-up is now everyone else’s problem.
While law enforcement is busy looking for your moronic ass, we’re going to be flooded with the most asinine commentary blaming everyone else for your stupidity.
Trans people, Muslims, etc. Take your pick. We’re all being forced into this cycle of blame by shameless propagandists because of your selfish bullshit.
You have helped no one in doing this. We are all now less safe because of you.
I’m not supposed to root for anyone’s suffering, but I’ll make an exception in this case.
I really do hope you suffer for all the pain you’re about to cause so many innocent people who didn’t get a say before you decided to pull that trigger.
Fuck you.
This will sail far, far over MAGA heads. According to the Flag Code, what is the proper means of disposing of a worn-out flag?
Standing by as MAGA brains cave in.
